 No good deed goes unpunished.  A Florida sea tow captain saved a man from a burning ship only to be shoved overboard and have his boat stolen. This shocking incident occurred near Marco Island on March 6th. On that date, a call went out regarding a burning boat. The captain of a sea tow boat heard the distress call and rushed to provide aid. He was able to quickly locate the burning boat and  discovered 40-year-old, Ryan Deiter, and his dog onboard the burning ship. Wasting no time, the captain of the sea tow boat was able to maneuver alongside the distressed boat and begin efforts to extricate Deiter and his dog from the doomed vessel.  Eventually, the sea tow captain was able to pull both Deiter and his dog onboard the tow boat. However, once Deiter was pulled to safety, he repaid a stranger's kindness with treachery.  Deiter shoved the captain from his own boat and fled the scene in the stolen boat, leaving the man who had just risked his own vessel and life...

 COMMANDER OPWS ENGAGES MIYETTI ALLAH LEADERS IN STRATEGIC STAKEHOLDER MEETING TO TACKLE INSECURITY IN BENUE STATE


In a renewed effort to decisively address the persistent security challenges plaguing Benue State and its environs, the Commander Joint Task Force Operation WHIRL STROKE (OPWS), Major General Moses Gara has convened a high  level security engagement with leaders of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders’ Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) at the Signature Hotel, Makurdi.


The closed door meeting, which brought together critical stakeholders including security agencies and local government authorities, focused on resolving long-standing issues such as farmer/herder conflicts, targeted and retaliatory killings, kidnapping, and cattle rustling factors that have significantly undermined peace and stability in the region.


Major General Gara reaffirmed the commitment of OPWS to restoring law and order through inclusive dialogue and multi-stakeholder collaboration. He urged MACBAN leaders to support the ongoing efforts by shunning acts of lawlessness, encouraging peaceful coexistence, and promptly reporting any threats to security. He further emphasized that sustainable peace is a prerequisite for agricultural revitalization and socio-economic development in Benue State.


"This meeting is a bold and necessary step toward isolating criminal elements, fostering mutual understanding, and promoting peaceful cohabitation among communities. Dialogue must supersede confrontation if we are to achieve enduring stability," Major General Gara asserted.


The Commander assured participants that grievances raised during the meeting would be escalated to the state government and relevant national authorities for redress. He also reiterated OPWS’s zero tolerance for impunity, stressing the imperative of upholding the rule of law in the pursuit of justice.


The initiative underscores a strategic shift towards proactive civil-military engagement aimed at de-escalating tensions, dismantling networks of violence, and creating a conducive environment for peacebuilding. All participants were charged to remain vigilant and committed to the resolutions reached, while encouraging communities to report infractions through legal and recognized channels rather than resorting to extra-judicial actions.


The outcome of this stakeholder meeting signals a new phase of partnership in confronting insecurity and rebuilding trust. If fully implemented, the agreed frameworks will bolster security architecture, reinvigorate the local economy, and improve the overall wellbeing of the citizens of Benue State.
